Posts 51-yard TD among 10 targets Watson caught four of 10 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Lions. He also rushed once for three yards.

Impact Watson may have gotten away with a pushoff on his 51-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter but the play stood as his third touchdown catch in the past three games and accounted for the majority of his production Thursday. His season debut didn't come until Week 8, but Watson has recorded at least 45 receiving yards in all six of his appearances, establishing himself as the top receiving option in a Green Bay offense that's normally run-heavy, Thursday's four-touchdown performance from Jordan Love notwithstanding. Watson's fantasy stock continues to rise heading into another NFC North matchup in Week 14 against the Bears.

Paces pass catchers in win Watson brought in five of seven targets for 49 yards in the Packers' 23-6 win over the Vikings on Sunday.

Impact Watson set the pace across the board for the Packers' air attack in receptions, receiving yards and targets on a day when Jordan Love completed only 14 passes for 139 yards. Watson arguably boasts the most stable floor of any Green Bay receiver in his team's frequently low-volume passing game for the moment, as he's now recorded 45 receiving yards or more in all five games while logging at least four targets in each contest as well. Watson could be in for his busiest day yet when the Packers visit the Lions for a Thanksgiving Day showdown Thursday.
